Chef in Frame marks its First Anniversary this month. Oh boy, time is running extremely fast and I can not believe a year have just gone by. I started this blog on Nov, 2013 for organizing and documenting the recipes I baked or cooked in spare time after graduation. I could never imagine to reach at that point where I'm today, never ever in my wild imagination. This one year of blogging ride has been huge blessing for me - in the form of amazing people abundance with extraordinary talent and love, in the form of learning to be a better cook, baker, photographer and to be a good writer, (which I'm not, sadly) in the form of adventure which I could never imagine myself to be in, its just happen as I search my passion and take it to the next level. However, what make this journey all the more enjoyable is that I can share my food love with loyal readers like you and you can get something to try and cheer with your love once.

Eh, look at these pearls in dark! and flying fire candle!

One year ago, I was too little for this Internet world, toying around with ideas and recipes. There was zero reader back then, but if I look at my stats today there're huge numbers, at least for me who couldn't dream of having 15,000+ readers since twelve months and having true-blue followers at social medias, this all is something I'm way too grateful for. You guys simply are amazing, your each and every word encouraged me so much. What else could be the better gift on my own birthday? ♥ Thank you, Merci, Grazie, Shukriyah for being Good-Eggs of this blog. Stay same and wonderful! Keep following, reading and sharing!
